Street Smarts from Proverbs Study Guide: Navigating Through Conflict to Community

STREET SMARTS FROM PROVERBS reveals Solomon's steps to divine wisdom while providing tools to navigate out of conflict into community.

Mitch Kruse learned the hard way that going to church three times a week while growing up did not answer the question:

Have you ever thought about changing the scorecard of your life from money to wisdom?

His pursuit to find the answer sparked a lifelong journey through the ultimate wisdom book, Proverbs, one that connects God's heart with street smarts.

Proverbs is the Bible’s book of wisdom, full of 1,000 priceless sayings. It is also one of the most tightly outlined books in the Old Testament, designed to equip leaders with wisdom to navigate through life’s conflicts toward deep and rich community.

In STREET SMARTS FROM PROVERBS, author Mitch Kruse introduces Solomon’s twelve words to the wise: • righteousness, equity, and justice • wise behavior, understanding, and wise communication • prudence, discretion, and wise counsel • discipline, knowledge, and learning

With these twelve words, as well as real-life stories, prompts, and a step-by-step process to assimilate each respective trait of wisdom from the book, study guide participants will begin to experience God’s transformation of their hearts, their careers, their families, and their relationships!
